Which Hoop Sales plans include the guided selling tools?
The core features of the guided selling tools are available across multiple tiers of the Hoop Sales platform, specifically in the core, pro, and enterprise plans.
While the fundamental AI guidance is accessible in the core package, the depth of features, such as advanced logic workflows, may be reserved for the higher-tier plans like pro and enterprise. Pricing and full feature availability are dependent upon your specific subscription plan within the Hoop platform.
It is best to consult the detailed plan comparison to understand any usage limits or tier-specific advanced AI capabilities that can maximize your team’s results.
How quickly can our team implement Hoop's guided selling tools?
Implementation of Hoop’s guided selling tools is designed for rapid adoption, minimizing time to value. The guidance features are natively embedded directly into the Hoop Sales workspace and are automatically powered by your existing CRM data and sales activity context.
Since the feature relies on the data you already manage within the platform, there is no lengthy external installation process. Once your CRM is connected within Hoop, teams can typically begin using the AI-prioritized task lists and guidance immediately. This ensures sales reps can start prioritizing actions and driving momentum on day one.
Does the guided selling feature integrate with existing CRM tools?
Yes, the Hoop Sales platform is designed to work effectively with your existing connected tools, including primary CRM software. The guided selling features operate within the centralized Hoop workspace and seamlessly leverage the context available from your connected CRM data.
This deep integration ensures that all necessary information—such as buyer activity, relevant talking points, and deal progression—is surfaced to reps. The goal is to unify workflows so reps can manage leads, track deals, and execute personalized outreach without constantly switching between different applications. Hoop makes sure that data flow is continuous and real-time for accurate guidance.
What security and privacy measures protect our sales data?
Hoop treats the security and privacy of your sales data as a top priority. The AI Guided Selling feature processes data strictly within the parameters of your existing access controls and standard platform security protocols. All data transmissions are encrypted using industry-standard protocols, protecting sensitive CRM information.
Data privacy is maintained through:
- Anonymized data analysis for model training, ensuring individual client data remains confidential.
- Strict compliance with global data protection regulations like GDPR and CCPA.
- Regular security audits to prevent unauthorized access to the sales workspace and its underlying data sources.
Your team retains ownership and control over all customer data, with Hoop acting solely as a processor to provide intelligent guidance.
What are the best ways to troubleshoot common issues with the guidance?
Most common issues with the AI Guided Selling feature are related to data synchronization or filtering within the sales workspace. If guidance seems outdated or irrelevant, the first step should always be to ensure your connected CRM data is refreshing correctly and that your workspace filters are set appropriately for the current tasks.
If problems persist, follow these steps:
- Verify that the data connection between Hoop Sales and your CRM is active and healthy in the settings panel.
- Clear any specific filters or queues applied to your task list to ensure the full range of opportunities appears.
- Consult the in-platform help center for targeted solutions and training videos on feature usage.
